great question

I was asked recently whether the study of philosophy makes one more skeptical.

I didn't know how to answer for at least a couple of reasons.

First, I really don't know how to answer questions at that level of generality.

Second, I still haven't figured out what the study of philosophy has done to me.

Thoughts from those who've been made skeptical or otherwise by philosophy?
